A colony is two things:

  • The physical colony built underground
  • The ants living in the colony

See also: UI Colony View

Properties

The colony has (all as float numbers):

  • Size (the number of ants living there)
  • Capacity (max ants and max food)
    • Experienced playes may build secret chambers too. (Can not be destroyed by players themselves, only by ants)
  • Food (how much food is stored)

Founding

A players builds the physical colony. It may only be built on what Reversed Geocoding (https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/intro#ReverseGeocoding) says is withing a country and most likely also more specified parts. This location info is stored with the colony data and is used for scoring lists.

Every minute

  • If the owner of the colony has set its property to expand the capacity expands.
  • If the owner of the colony has set its property to breed the size expands but no more than the capacity.
  • If the owner of the colony has set its property to get food the food is added (if there is food available) but no more than the capacity.
  • If the number of ants is bigger than the capacity limit, the number of ant is slowly decreased
  • The ants eat and food is decreased by the number of ants
  • If there is no food the number of ants is decreased
  • Sometimes cave in-s and other accidents occur
